Hallowe’en may be a few months off yet, and Christmas even further away, but it’s never too early to get started on holiday centric cross stitch! This week’s free pattern would be a sure-fire hit for either of those holidays. This smiling face of Jack Skellington, from ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’, will fit into a 4 inch embroidery hoop, as it measures 3″ x 2.5″ approx, making it perfect to stitch up and display easily. The pattern is made up of just black full crosses, so it should be a breeze for all abilities, and if you like, you could stitch it in white floss onto black aida, or, better still, use DMC’s Light Effects glow-in-the-dark floss (E940) to create eerie, year round wall art.
So click here to get the pattern and be sure to let us know how you plan to use it, either in the comments section or on our Facebook page. And remember to check out the store and take advantage of our 30% off back to school sale. Use coupon code BACKTOSCHOOL at the check out until 31st of August.
